shesus---what i'm saying is that there is ALOT of money made from/through the prison-industrial system in the states.
to get your head around it, you need to get your head around how this prison-industrial complex is defined--it's more than prison buildings for example.
i put up the article because it has the virtue of running through the component parts in a quick and accessible way, and does it more efficiently than i could have.
so in this case, it's better to read the article.
after all, i've found myself sitting in pubs reading a newspaper before, haven't you? regularly at the map room back in the day.
and had we been sitting in, say, the map room and i had the article at hand, i would have slid it over at the same point.
there are lots of ways to be in a pub. just saying.
